This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
My Students
I work at the best school. Our students have contagious school pride. We are a family like no other. We are located in a community that is surrounded by colleges and low-income housing. In our school, you will see students who represent different ethnicities, come from different countries, and academically learn in different ways.
As our students say every morning, "We are destined for greatness." Our school family is growing and excited to learn and excel in the sport of learning.
My Project
Volleyball is becoming a way of life for my girls who sleep, eat, and breathe volleyball. It is more than just a sport to them. Playing volleyball has allowed them to form friendships and build confidence. We want our girls to continue training when the volleyball season is over. We also want to give them something positive to do during their summer break.
Every year our girls have the opportunity to participate in summer team camps.
It is our goal to send up to 20 girls to volleyball camp together. It helps beginners learn the basics, and others to continue building their volleyball skills.
